Bug#589832: xserver-xorg-input-wacom: Bamboo Pen & Touch not supported



Hello

The tablet requires the latest wacom X driver release for touch
support (the driver in Debian is too old). I tried 0.10.7 and
currently 0.10.8 is available. The version in Debian is 0.10.5.

The kernel driver in 2.6.34 kernel is too old and does not recognize
the tablet at all.

It is possible to update the driver from the linuxwacom sources (tried
0.8.8-7, currently 0.8.8-8 is available). However, the driver does not
compile against linux-headers. Full compiled kernel source is required
to build the driver. Alternatively the wacom.c and supporting files
could be probably patched in the Debian kernel.

Thanks

Michal
